Clean Health, the trusted source of fitness education for personal trainers worldwide, has acquired the Nutritional Coaching Institute (NCI).
The acquisition is Clean Health’s first foray into international M&A, further accelerating its mission to educate over 1 million fitness professionals by 2028, positively impacting the health and wellness of tens of millions of global clients.
Based in Phoenix, Arizona, NCI is North America’s leading provider of evidence-based nutrition courses and fitness business development programs for fitness professionals.
“NCIs tried and tested business model has been the global benchmark in helping coaches realise their full potential. Their online nutrition and fitness business development programs and live events bridge the gap between science and application”.
“We see an unprecedented opportunity to scale this community and help PTs and coaches globally ‘level up’ their nutritional science and fitness business through the Nutritional Coaching Institute, and we couldn’t be more excited about this new chapter of exponential growth!” said Daine McDonald, Founder and Chairman of Clean Health Group.
Jason Phillips, Founder of NCI, said, “I created the Nutritional Coaching Institute to instil in you the tools, mindset, and confidence that coaches need to tackle any client’s toughest eating challenges. I innately understand coaching and business, and I am even more passionate about impacting the industry at scale.”
“I am so excited to pass the baton to the Clean Health Group and see how they level up not only NCI but the global capabilities and skills of coaches.”
Jason Phillips will remain the Head Business Coach for Clean Health Group students, and Alan Aragon, PhD in Nutritional Science and industry veteran of over 30 years, will remain the group’s Chief Science Officer.
